Playing the Organ

Dividing the Keyboard (Split)

You can divide the keyboard into two zones, and assign the upper part sound of the

organ voice to the right-hand zone, and the lower part sound of the organ voice to

the left-hand zone.

This is called “split,” and the location at which the keyboard is divided is called the

“split point.” The split point is included in the Upper part.
